  1. The dealers are crazy

    lol, many of us think this way tooā€¦.until we damage a wheel because 30 series sidewalls arenā€™t meant for daily drivingā€¦then weā€™re all in the market for 18s/19s. ā€˜vagen
  2. About To Become a First Time Type R Owner - Need Your Expertise - Some Important Questions

    lol, I write this from up in the UP, indeed, MI roads are worse. I went with Advan RZ-F2s. Iā€™ll post the original link below. Theyā€™ve been great, but NOT a wheel Iā€™d recommend if youā€™re on a budget, something you implied in your original postā€¦.otherwise, great finish, lightweight, seemingly...

  4. About To Become a First Time Type R Owner - Need Your Expertise - Some Important Questions

    I almost immediately switched over to 18ā€™s with 40 series side profileā€¦. Live in OH, roads for the most part are fine, but had two incidents in the first 3mo with the OEMs driving at night in the rain where potholes magically appeared and SLAM! there goes a tire. After these two instances...
  5. 91 Limited Edition Type R's Still For Sale

    In many instances, Iā€™m sure itā€™s the dealership owner keeping it for themselves and leaving it to sit there for increased foot traffic. A couple dealerships local to me had some of the original 2017s sitting in their showrooms when they first came out. I asked and they basically said it was...
  6. 2020 Infotainment System/Apple Carplay Issues

    oooh, this is worth its own threadā€¦tried multiple times and the head unit never recognized the drive. There must be some combo of drive formatting, size, and file type Iā€™m unaware ofā€¦ ā€˜vagen
  7. 2020 Infotainment System/Apple Carplay Issues

    Iā€™ve found even with this setting on, fewer ā€œensure a usb device is plugged inā€ errors happen when I manually unlock ahead of plugging inā€¦ ā€˜vagen
  8. 2020 Infotainment System/Apple Carplay Issues

    This right here! My 2019 insists I start up the car, wait for the warning to come up on the head unit, push ā€œOK,ā€ unlock the phone, THEN plug in. Agonizing process if all you want to do is jump in and go, but anything else throws the chances of a lock up/black screen from 10% up to at least...

  10. Official Sonic Grey Pearl Type R Picture Thread

    i have to say iā€™ve never understood the need/want for visors.....just seems like we spend so much time picking out sleek items to lighten our cars then tack on these flimsy looking things.... maybe my reaction is because most guys around me have them so they can still vape in theirs cars with...

  12. carplay (ios 14.3)

    update: dealer pulled the fuse to the electronics and called it a day, swore ā€œno one has come back complaining of this issue again after weā€™ve done this fix!ā€ lol. yeah, sure. The moment it glitches again Iā€™m taking it back in a third time. ā€˜vagen
  13. carplay (ios 14.3)

    I've been having consistent issues with it working fine, then hop out of the car to run an errand and upon startup, it locks/freezes and the screen is just black. Restarting the car does nothing. Changing the cable does nothing. Iā€™m about to give up on CarPlay. I have a second appt Mon to...

  15. Interesting About Type R Badge #

    Its been documented that the number plates, while unique, arenā€™t tied directly to numbers of CTRs produced, or even year. So itā€™s conceivable that ther was simply an old number lying in the bin the day this one was made... ā€™vagen
  16. Official Sonic Grey Pearl Type R Picture Thread

    wow, that sucks. Iā€™d say thatā€™s a solid ā€œnoā€ to system. My dealing with vivid went down a little smoother. I emphasized I wanted in stock and ready to ship from a conus -based warehouse and they gave the list of ones they had ā€œin stock.ā€ This in and of itself is a misnomer, because I think all...
  17. Official Sonic Grey Pearl Type R Picture Thread

    if youā€™re looking for in stock and ready to ship today, you must email or call each of the shops directly. You simply cannot rely on their websites. This sounds like your primary requirement, so you need to get them all on the phone and ask whatā€™s in stock, and the best price they're willing to...

    nope, not on a stand, it simply came bubble wrapped without any retail packaging. Dimensions listed on the listing are 5.9" x 2.4" x 2.0ā€ and it looks about right. Another pic taken in the daylight next to a can for a size reference... ā€˜vagen
